Linux

I have been using Linux in some form or another since early 1996 (Slackware 3.1 if I recall correctly, came on a cover Cd, with only enough instructions to create a boot disk). These days I use UbuntuServer on the headless server machines at home, and the Xubuntu flavour of Ubuntu on my Linux desktops or laptops. I also use VMs of Fedora and Debian. I use all three of Linux, Windows and macos, tending to whichever makes a given task more straightforward. Tmux is a godsend, and WSL under Windows is great to have (along with Cygwin — Windows would be a PITA without a decent GNU command-line).

My previous wikis are over here and I am gradually migrating the content over. But it is something I need to do by hand since I want to sort through things as I go.
